Furthermore, the Chairman of Turkish Exporters Assembly (Türkiye İhracatçılar Meclisi - TIM) Mehmet Büyükekşi states the main problem as Turkey became a member of the Customs Union without becoming a member country of the EU.167 The unique status of Turkey compare to member countries of the EU causes difficulties on agreements which are related with the CU, especially the Free Trade Area Agreements (Serbest Ticaret Alanı Anlaşması –STA) which the EU signs with non-member countries. Unlike the member states of the EU, Turkey has to accept without any negotiation processes and causes an unfair atmosphere between the EU and Turkey. At the end STAs always result in favor of the EU and affect the level of exports as well as the external trade and economy of Turkey.


On the other hand, Hayati Yazıcı points out that CU has also positive impacts; but its negative impacts cause the economical problems. He also determines the disappointments of Turkey about the EU’s unfulfilled obligations related to the Customs Union168 which took place in Ankara Agreement and Additional Protocols.
The unfulfilled obligations of the EU can be listed as:

  • Free Movement of Labour

  • Systemic Control of Country of Origin for Colour Televisions and Anti-Dumping Investigation

  • Financial Support

  • Non-inclusion of Turkey to the EU’s Free Trade Agreements (FTA) vis-à-vis the Third Parties

  • Non-inclusion of Agricultural Products to the Customs Union

  • Transport Quotas

  • Schengen Visa Requirements for Turkish Nationals and the Issue of Freedom of Provision of Services

Yazıcı concludes his article by representing his disappointments about the EU and demands on the CU. “Despite Turkey’s close cooperation with the EU, some issues have led to an increased frustration on the former’s side. Turkey is still conducting accession negotiations with the EU which have been further complicated by the unresolved Cyprus problem. Turkish frustration has been also caused by the EU’s insufficient support for Turkey’s battle against domestic terrorism (e.g. PKK). Since the establishment of a Customs Union between the EU and Turkey in 1996, the latter went through radical changes in its Customs legislation and administration in order to meet the EU standards. Turkish economy improved, however its trade deficit with the EU and third parties has increased. Additionally, the EU has failed -thus far- to fulfill certain important obligations which were envisioned in the CU Agreement concerning, among others, the free movement of Turkish citizens in the EU and the removal of trade barriers.”169


In this context, the article presents the fact that the problems between the EU and Turkey are not based on only the CU; but the EU, its demands from Turkey and its slow motion steps with respect to EU accession process of Turkey. In fact the disappointment of Turkey about the EU can be found in every statement of the Turkish officials. Continues economic growth of Turkey gives it a chance to make demands from the EU and raise its voice against to the EU. In fact, economic growth and strengths of Turkey started to change the relations between Turkey and the EU that also affects the interest level of Turkey to the EU accession.

VII. CONCLUSION
The end of the never ending story between the EU and Turkey is one of the issues in international policies that everybody would like to know. By wondering to know if Turkey will be an EU member state one day or not, it became an issue of 54 years. With regard to this issue, there has been made numerous researches and written a series of articles by various academicians. However, it seems that more will be written for a long time because “analysts predict that at best, Turkish membership in the EU is at least another decade away”.170
Growing opposition in Turkey against to the EU accession is not an old topic, even though a considerable opposition has always been existed since the begging of the dialogues. Nevertheless, they were not mentioned enough and Turkey was always in a position as a country which wants to become an EU member state by giving an important priority to the EU membership in its politics that otherwise cannot be thought. When Turkey started to rise in international politics with its strengths, in parallel, the opposition against to the EU also increased. Accordingly, the highest level officials from Turkish government began to make such statements to show that EU is not the only option for Turkey by mentioning the international organisations like ASEAN and SCO was presented on the statement of Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in earlier chapter.
Furthermore, the indicators of national power of Turkey are decisive reasons to create other options than the EU. There is a fundamental approach from the people who do not support the accession process to the EU that can be simply described as “the big and strong country Turkey does not need the EU”. The accuracy of this approach can be questioned and discussed. However, this kind of approach leads and brings out two different options for Turkey. First option is that Turkey should be able to say “NO” to the EU171 by getting stronger and developing its-self in every respect such as in economy, technology, democracy, education etc. Second option is that Turkey should consider the Eurasia option172 and take a side next to the strong eastern countries. Nevertheless, in the case of second option, NATO membership of Turkey should be taking into consideration because of having strong militarily, as well as economically, ties between the EU and Turkey. In both scenarios the main aim is to find alternatives to the EU which affects the declining interest in Turkey to the EU accession. Notwithstanding, achievability of their aim is a big and open debate.
To achieve the aim of the thesis, the interest level of Turkey to the EU membership was analysed. By emphasizing the growing opposition against to the EU, same or very similar arguments of the people were presented to explain the reasons why there is such a belief that the EU membership is against to the sovereignty and integrity of Turkey. The stressed issues were the most sensitive ones from those people’s point of view because they mainly believe that “whoever asserts that the EU membership will produce good results for Turkey, intentionally or without knowingly, they serve the aim of imperialist countries to realize the Treaty of Sèvres”.173 As it was mentioned earlier, the main reason why they stress this treaty is the minorities issue in Turkey where is considered as “the heaven of minorities”.174 One last time, it is necessary to indicate that the presented arguments do not belong to entire Turkey or to whole people who do not support the EU membership. On the contrary, AKP government in Turkey made lots of changes step by step to handle with the issues, especially with the Kurdish question, even though the opposition arguments exist and effective. In accordance of this fact, more researches on opposition in Turkey should be made and deeply analysed to understand the issues as whole from the both sides. One of the famous expressions of Sigmund Freud, the founding father of psychoanalysis, underlines that “Opposition is not necessarily enmity; it is merely misused and made an occasion for enmity”.
